Chapter 348: Mystery Thicket
"Boss, we're going on a treasure hunt in Egypt?"
On the plane, Wang Hong looked forward to it: "I have long heard that the pyramid is one of the seven wonders of the world, and today I finally have the opportunity to see it with my own eyes!" ”
"It's okay to be idle this time, it's the first time I've been to Egypt, and Lao Ren chatters crookedly all day long, saying that the Ancient Civilization Museum is empty. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Wu Tianyuan said helplessly: "Now that the Holy See is here, there is no need to worry about the collections of the Western Museum, exchange some regularly, and it will be done soon." The most troublesome thing is the Ancient Civilization Museum, which is really tiring! ”
Wang Hong looked at Wu Tianyuan with a smile on her face, saying that she was tired, but she obviously enjoyed the treasure hunting process. After a week's rest, set off again, aiming for Egypt.
Since the last time he saw the grand Egyptian exhibition hall in the British Museum, Wu Tianyuan has never forgotten it, and each of the four ancient civilizations has left many mysterious monuments. Many of the puzzles have not been solved yet, which makes him very conquestful.
There are so many unknowns about the pyramids, the most interesting are the 12 unsolved mysteries, namely the exploration of the ancient monuments of Tula, the close connection of the cast stones, the human sphinx, the secrets of architecture, the immortality of animals and plants for thousands of years after death, the 200th person to fall to death, the wonderful functions and others, the elevation angle of the pyramids, the mystery shrouded in the tombs, the secret passages and complete ships, the pyramids under Bermuda, and the behemoths of Guanzhou.
There are more than 70 large and small pyramids in Egypt. The first is the stepped pyramid of King Jessel of the Third Dynasty of Egypt, and later the pyramid pyramid of the horn cone, which evolved from this foundation. Among them, the two pyramids of Khufu and Khafre, located near the city of Giza on the outskirts of Cairo, are listed as the first of the eight ancient wonders of the world.
"It's the Pyramid of Khufu!"
When the group came to the destination and saw the most famous big pyramid, Wang Hong looked at the magnificent pyramid and wondered: "I really don't know how the ancient people built such a majestic pyramid without large machines?" ”
"The mystery of the construction of the pyramids in Egypt has recently been given a new explanation!" Wu Tianyuan said: "David, a chemist at the University of Barry in the United States, pointed out that the pyramid stones are formed by hand-cast blocks, just like today's pouring concrete. ”
"Crushed limestone slurry mixed with a mineral binder is injected into a large mold to cast strips. This explanation can eliminate the explanation of why the pyramid stone contains bubbles while the stone in nature does not contain bubbles, and also dispels the long-standing and controversial mystery. ”
However, in 2600 B.C., it was possible to make a stone by pouring it, and it was so close to each other that not even a piece of paper could be inserted, and it was possible to achieve such a high level of skill with the modern science and technology of the 80s of the 20th century. But it is puzzling that this was possible in 2600 B.C.E. ”
And why the ancient Egyptians built this stone statue next to the pyramid is still a mystery. The Sphinx, a human, appeared in Greek mythology in ancient times. Similar carvings can still be seen on some ancient buildings, tombstones, and shields in Greece. It is said that it was used to suppress evil spirits, and the sphinxes and other statues have different shapes depending on the era and region, but they may have been built for the same purpose. ”
There is also speculation that the sphinx erected next to the pyramids in Egypt was intended to embody the majesty of the supreme ruler. For the face resembles that of a pharaoh. The purpose of the Sphinx in Egypt remains to be determined. ”
While the group was visiting and chatting, Wu Tianyuan suddenly pointed to a fringe and said: "The 9th century A.D. was the heyday of the Khari Ibn dynasty. Legend has it that the great pyramid of Hufu contained countless treasures of gold and silver, and some greedy adventurers, salivating and painstakingly, finally found the entrance to the tower. They burned the stone gate at the entrance and poured vinegar on the hot stone gate, so that after several twists and turns, the stone gate was finally collapsed. But on the way inside the entrance, there are also huge boulders, so that people do not know how to get out of the maze and find the treasure. ”
According to the archaeologist Helier, the Pyramid of Hufu has seven chambers, and it is not a large tomb for the pharaoh, but a tower of science. It has an unattainable level of mathematics and geometry. ”
"The knowledge of the pyramid is hidden, the ancients often put the secret in a symbolic concrete image, you see this Hufu great pyramid is facing east, west, south and north four positive directions, its top is a 52-degree cone. So there is a certain reason for the construction of this angular shape. ”
"Scientists have done experiments, first take a certain amount of sand, slowly pour it on the ground from top to bottom, it will form a cone of sand, and after it is fixed, you will know that it is exactly 52 degrees of cone angle. This angle is referred to as the "limit or stability angle of natural collapse".
"The pyramid was built at this angle, so it was strong at the top, it would never collapse, and it wouldn't have a big impact even on an earthquake. It is as if the pyramid is located in the center of the magnetic field lines, moving with the movement of the magnetic field lines, and also moving with the movement of the earth, so the vibration amplitude is very small. This may be the reason why the pyramid has survived the vicissitudes of life but is still as stable as Mount Tai. ”
Helier also experimented by placing some bean seeds and sugar in the pyramid's burial chamber. After some time, he planted the rapeseed that was sent into the tower and the rapeseed that was not put into the pyramid in the same field. After the seedlings emerged, it was found that the seedlings put in the tower were 4 times longer than the seedlings that were not put in the tower, and the leaves were also wide, and the sugar was different. ”
In the ancient monuments of Egypt's "God of Wisdom and Magic", the ancient brown fruit was found, which is no different from the new fruit, and some of the grass unearthed in the wooden barrel is still very green. What's even more peculiar is that some of the flowers that have been excavated are still brightly colored. These flowers are delicious for the first time in 4,000 years.
Helier thinks there could be two answers: one is to put these things in clean, sterilizing, and non-decomposing chemicals; One is what kind of radiation they create, called "cosmic waves", that perpetuate matter.
Wang Jun looked at the top of the pyramid and said, "If you can climb to the top and see it in person, how majestic would it be?" ”
Wu Tianyuan said with a smile: "Many brave warriors came to the tower, all wanting to taste the taste of climbing to the top of the pyramid, but so far no one has been able to get their wish. In 1989, a British tour group included a young man named Peter, who was so heroic that he quietly climbed a 500-foot-high pyramid from the western slope along the rock gap to the west side. ”
When he had climbed to about a third of the top, Peter turned to the visitors and guides below, and exclaimed, "Look! I'm almost at the top of the tower!" At this time, the guide in charge of leading the team, Owen, immediately warned Peter who was still crawling on the tower: "The pyramid cannot be climbed!" Hurry down!" But he continued to climb towards the tower.
After about two hours, Peter finally climbed to the top of the tower, and the onlookers were amazed. At this time, some police cars and Red Cross vehicles also arrived at the scene after hearing the news. He held out there for about 10 minutes before falling from the top of the tower and dying instantly. ”
"After post-mortem verification, the report states that Peter died of a serious head injury long before his body fell to the ground; Nearly every bone in his body was broken, and his face was unrecognizable because of the blur of flesh. According to local police records, since 1940, a full 200 people who have climbed the Shwedagon Pagoda have all ended in deaths. ”
Wang Hong was speechless: "Is there really a curse of the pharaoh?" (To be continued.) )
